Safety Tips:

AVOID ALLEYS!! They may be a shortcut, but no one can see you in there.

Studies show that street thieves avoid people who appear confident and purposeful when walking.

When walking, stay in public areas.

If confronted, give up your belongings calmly. Thieves want they same thing you do, to get out of there quickly.

Your money is not worth your life!
